Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are part of the Hound classification of dogs. This indicates that they are a scent-oriented breed that can successfully track hare and other small game. Dachshunds are known for their low, long body style, which is helpful when chasing quarry through tunnels and thickets. They have long, strong legs and non-erect ears that can help funnel prey-generated scents. Their tails are distinctive, being long and curved and held up high. Dachshunds come in three coat varieties: smooth, wire-haired and longhaired.
Dachshunds are not classified as non-shedding dogs. Their coat is usually short and smooth, and while they tend to shed less than longer-haired dogs, they still shed some hair periodically. Shedding is a natural process for all animals with fur and it’s simply their way of getting rid of excess, or old, hair as new fur grows in. To reduce the amount that your Dachshund sheds, regular brushing and grooming can help.
Dachshunds have a few special dietary needs that owners should be aware of. High-quality dog food is recommended for all sizes of Dachshunds, and it should be low in fat and high in protein. Dachshunds can also benefit from 2-3 small meals per day rather than one large meal. It's important to keep all treats occasional and avoid excessive snacking or table food, as this can cause weight gain.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund requires dedication, patience, and an understanding of your pup's unique needs. Start by establishing a daily routine for feeding, exercise, and potty breaks. As your pup matures, encourage positive behavior through visual cues, vocal praise, and rewards. Spend quality time with your Dachshund each day—playtime and cuddles help create a strong bond, while keeping them mentally and emotionally stimulated. Socialization with other puppies and people is also important to help your pup become comfortable and confident in different environments.
Dachshunds typically mature to a size between 16 to 32 pounds, depending on their sex and lineage. Generally, females are seen to be somewhat smaller than males. As your Dachshund puppy grows, they may experience a growth spurt or periods of rapid growth followed by times of slower, more frequent gains. Their size won't become fully apparent until your puppy is approximately one year old; however, you can usually make a good estimate of the projected size of your pup by looking at their parent’s sizes.
Dachshunds typically need a moderate amount of exercise to stay healthy and in shape. It is recommended that Dachshunds receive between 30-60 minutes of exercise each day, which can include walking, running, fetching, and playing. Dachshunds should be taken on regular walks to maintain their muscle tone and help promote healthy digestion. When engaging in physical activity, it is important to be mindful of the temperature as this breed is susceptible to overheating.
Dachshunds can generally get along well with kids, as they are a friendly, loyal breed of dog and capable of forming deep bonds with their owners and family members. When socialized correctly, they can be wonderful family pets that love to play and cuddle with children. It's important to remember that like all dogs, Dachshunds require patience, guidance, and training to ensure they are behaving properly around children. Also, it is important to choose an age-appropriate pet for the age of your kids and make sure they are supervised while with the pet.
To successfully train a Dachshund, it is essential to use positive reinforcement techniques such as treats, praise and playtime as rewards. It is important to ensure that the training process is consistent with the Dachshund's specific needs. Begin with basic commands such as 'sit', 'stay', and 'down', and reward them with treats and verbal praise when the command is completed to encourage them.
